Wikipedia

  1. Trematoda

    Trematoda is a class of flatworms known as flukes. They are obligate internal parasites with a complex life cycle requiring at least two hosts. The intermediate host, in which asexual reproduction occurs, is usually a snail. The definitive host, where the flukes sexually reproduce, is a vertebrate. Infection by trematodes can cause disease in all five traditional vertebrate classes: mammals, birds, amphibians, reptiles, and fish.

These organisms have complex life cycles and often require multiple host species to complete their development. They live in various habitats such as freshwater, marine environments, and can also infect a large number of organisms, including humans, where they reside in specific organs or tissues. Some species may cause diseases, like schistosomiasis, one of the major parasitic diseases in tropical and subtropical regions.
